As my latest Morsels
for 2012, I decided to give you one more of the Notes From My Bible series.
Those have been appreciated by many, and I have a bunch of notes from over the
years. Your comments in this series have been read with much appreciation.
Thank you.

Notice in a Small Town Newspaper

In case you should find a mistake in this paper,
please consider that it was put here for a purpose. We publish something for
everyone, and some folks are always looking for mistakes.

Christ’s Love

1)The
church: His love when loveless and unlovable.

2)His love
had no cause (that is, in us).

3)His love
when hated by the world.

4)His love
when tempted and deserted by all others.

5)Christ’s
love-from first to last. He loved the church and gave Himself for it.

(From John Bunyan; Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners)

Thoughtful Sayings

A man should learn something from many examples;
even every one that he meets. That is learning. However godly wisdom can only
come from God. (Read James 1:5)

The songs we sing and listen to reflect the song in
our heart. Sing me a song about Jesus!

There happen to be more places than ever where we
Christians are desperately needed. Real love, however, is not thin skinned. We
must not follow Christ in search of welcoming parties or applause. Sometimes we
are going to receive opposition, and we must honestly face that.

Do You Go To Church?

There are many who do not, for various reasons. One
of the most common objections is “There are too many hypocrites there”. Not a
good reason. The issue is between you and God, not others. What about when you
die. Will someone have your funeral in a church?

If they do, there are several things to
consider.1) You will go regardless of
the weather. 2) You will go regardless
of how your family feels. 3) You will go to the altar, but you will not pray.
4) You will go regardless of how much you are needed at your job. 5) You will
go regardless of the hypocrites there. WHY DON’T YOU GO NOW WHEN IT CAN DO
YOU SOME GOOD?

The Triune God Has Designed Man
as a Three Part Creature

Man is a three part being. 1) The body is world
consciousness. 2) The soul is self consciousness. 3) The spirit is God
consciousness. (But the spirit does not live until you’re born again.) “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his
great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath
quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)” (Ephesians
2:4-5)

About Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ is the only man who
has ever lived who had power to choose where, how, and to whom He would be
born. Yet He chose, 1) The espoused wife of a lowly carpenter as the vessel to
born Him. 2) The most despised nation on the earth to be His people as far as
race. 3) The poorest way, and time in history to be born. 4) They were evil
times, yet He lived there perfectly.

5) His people were in bondage to
the Romans, yet He came not to deliver them from the worldly powers, but from
sins dark power. 6) He never did wrong to anyone, yet He died the cursed death
of a vile criminal. His own crime did not take Him to death, but ours did.
Hallelujah!

God will have nothing to do with
anything He did not originate, that He did not sustain, or that does not bring
glory to Christ.

The Source—God Almighty

The Course—Calvary

The Force—Pentecost

Grace is unmerited favor
bestowed.

Mercy is deserved punishment
withheld.

Wrath is the unleashing of the
deserved punishment.

You cannot believe what you have
no knowledge about anymore that you can return from somewhere you have never
been. The Bible is our key to truth, and we must study it.

Truth

Truth needs no defense. False
teachers always find it necessary to defend their false doctrine. We could say
these are tests 1) What think you of Christ?2) What think you of the word of God?3) What doctrines are the highest regarded, or is there a scriptural
balance? 4) What think you of hell, heaven, Christ, God, Second Coming, the
Bible, the judgment, Righteousness?Heretics are distorters of the truth, and teach error. Apostates are
those who once knew the truth, then left it; yet still maintain the guise of it.
The World Council of Churches, the ecumenical movement, liberalism, etc., have
all been, in reality, like this all the time; but were manifested after a
season. As 1 John 2:19 tells us “They went out from us, but they were not of
us; for if they had been of us, they would have no doubt continued with us; but
they went out, that they might be manifest that they were not all of us.” God ordains all things for His children. He
has put me in the 20th, and 21st century; the jet age.
But, God never changes the teachings of His word. The old truths will work
today. Jesus is the same today. “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to
day, and for ever.” (Hebrews
13:8) Preach Him, worship Him and love
Him! Amen
